"Le Livre de la Marquise" is a limited-edition illustrated book by Russian artist Konstantin Andreevich Somov (1869–1939), known for his contributions to the Mir Iskusstva (World of Art) movement and his work in graphic arts, painting, and book illustration. Published in 1918, the book is a collection of erotic poetry and prose from the 18th century, which Somov complemented with his own illustrations. These illustrations are characteristic of his refined and elegant style, reflecting the Rococo influence that pervades much of his work.

The book's content is a reflection of Somov's interest in the French culture of the 18th century, which he often idealized in his art. "Le Livre de la Marquise" features a series of vignettes and full-page color illustrations that are both sensual and whimsical, capturing the spirit of the libertine literature of the period. Somov's illustrations are notable for their delicate line work and subtle use of color, which serve to enhance the erotic nature of the text without being overtly graphic.

"Le Livre de la Marquise" is considered an important work in the context of Russian Silver Age book design, showcasing the interplay between text and image and the craftsmanship involved in book production during this era. The book is also significant for its contribution to the history of erotic literature and art, as it exemplifies the way in which artists and writers of the time approached themes of sensuality and desire.

As a limited edition, "Le Livre de la Marquise" is a rare collector's item and is sought after for its artistic and historical value. The book remains a testament to Somov's artistic legacy and his ability to capture the essence of an era through his exquisite illustrations.
